Re: Progress Update, Maybe off iodine for awhile again
For sure that's a piece of it, but GAWD, I've done about 10 of those liver flushes, and most were very successful. That was a few years ago, though, and I feel like my liver never fully recovered - STILL. AT the time it seemed like the flushes started to feel too harsh (I did them about once a month for a year or so), so I stopped and just stuck with herbs & stuff. My skin looks almost normal, now - it had a yellow cast for a few years before the flushes produced a lot of stones, but I still see the yellow occasionally, it comes and goes. I still have a tendency to get bile stagnation, my husband does therapeutic bodywork and he knows how to drain my gallbladder manually, which helps. I read that sluggish GB and slow bile production/flow is one of the symptoms of low thyroid. I fit that profile nearly 100% and sometimes wonder if I could just get the thyroid functioning properly, would that "fix" most of my symptoms.
I've been gearing up for another flush, but I just haven't been able to take the time off to do it. I'm usually completely wiped out the next day and can't do much besides lay in bed and run to the bathroom every 15 minutes - lol!
